Article Summary

Our ForeSight analytics supports Lightning Web Components (LWC) analysis. Add a Lightning Web Component as a Scoped Item and analyze the potential impact of your planned change. 
Lightning Web Components is a new programming model for building Lightning components. LWC uses core Web Components standards and is built on code that runs natively in browsers, allowing it to be lightweight and deliver exceptional performance. Most of the code is standard JavaScript and HTML.
